Latex on PowerPoint

This is just too good to be true... I've always loved how easy it is to make presentations on MS PowerPoint, but we have to admit that when it comes to writing equations, Latex is the way to go.
The bad thing is that Beamer (the latex package for presentations) doesn't have all the nice (and above all "Click and Go") options that PowerPoint has. So, for those like me that want something pretty looking and fast to do, but prefer equations on latex, the solution is Iguana Tex, an add in for PPT that allows you to write equations in latex directly on your ppt document.
Just be sure that you have:
A latex installation (such as MikTex)
The dvipng package
the zhmetrics package

The purpose of this blog is to share some of the knowledge I have gathered in my experience as engineer. Some works are very old, and therefore not very well organized, as they are the result of a young mind. However, in the newer works I've been trying to improve my skills and make everything more efficient and precise. I hope they are useful for other people.

I also share here the works of friends that I consider might be of interest for other fellow engineers.
